It is a collector that is masking their number with a local number in hopes that you will answer the call. Most do not answer 800#s, but some don't think it is a collector if it IDs as from their local area. It is a masking trick. Suggestion: Do not answer your phone if you do not know/recognize the call. Let it go to voicemail; you can always call them back if it is legit.
yes this is a masked phone number for a collection agency/united recovery out of texas "area".......not the person they are looking for but they insist on calling back 2 or 3 times since i informed them of such.....sure makin my blood pressure go up....grrrrrrrrrrrrr...........as he smiles and breathes deeply :)
